My favorite Mini/Semimini AVs are: Rob's Fuddy Duddy, Shirl's Hawaiian Lei, Dean's Silver Veil, and Ballet Blue Ice. My favorite Trailer is Rob's Gundaroo. I'm sure you get lots of opinions - good luck! -Tim

Hi, Sara: I only have trailers and have grown Tiny Wood Trail so here's my experience: No pot larger than 1.5" to 2" Once your plant is fully developed, you can make tiny, tiny slits in the neck and where you have made your slits, new crowns will grow. Tiny Wood Trail is really, really small. Almost a micro-mini. It also does well in thumb pots. Good luck, Linda

Hi, Welcome to this forum. It is not unusual to receive smaller plantlets when ordering violets. Most are starters and this gives them a chance to grow out in your conditions. When repotting your new violet(or if you already have)don't pot up into a much larger container as this would make it susceptible to root rot. Maybe use about a 2 inch container. Also, your potting mix should be 1/3 peat mix/or commercial av mix, 1/3 perlite and 1/3 vermiculite. Most of the commercially prepared mixes for av's are much too heavy. They need a porous, light, airy mix for the roots to grow well and fill the pot. Depending on the size it is now(having 10 leaves), and being grown under lights, it should produce blossoms soon for you. I don't have this particualr trailer but you are correct in assuming that the blossoms won't be as large as a standard, and the leaves will remain smaller, too. I'm providing a link at the bottom to Rob's Violet Barn where he has some information about growing trailing violets, and a nice photo of your violet! I know you will enjoy your new semiminiature violet. Elaine Here is a link that might be useful: trailing violet
